Copper Peptides - from Skin Biology. I have been blown away by what these products have done for me. Eliminated a blemish that a derm said he'd have to remove with surgery; Rid me of some small moles/skin tags; even up skin tone; tighten pores; remove what few fine lines I had & MOST IMPORTANTLY - firm up my skin - especially on my upper eyelids, neck & jowl. I was even contemplating surgery for the eyes and they are now TIGHT and not sagging!! The neck is looking less and less like a turkey all the time, too! (I am 49, after all). I've also used a CP cream on a skin condition I have on my feet - w/ extremly dry, cracked skin. The CPs have given me normal, soft skin on my feet (& hands) for the first time in 20 years.
Other products I've used that I'd recommend, but did not give me as great of a WOW factor--
Tazorac - I've used this for years for acne and (unoffically) to ward off wrinkles. It caused irritation, so I only used it occasionally. With the CPs, I can now get it's full benefit as the CPs get rid of the redness/irritation. Coincidentally - my face still aged while using this product, and the CPs seem to be reversing that aging now. It was very good w/ keeping the fine lines at bay, tho.
BHAs - Paula Choice's 2%. Adding this to my routine significantly helped keep my face clear and helped me to get off of anti-biotics. Again - the CPs took this treatment one step further and helped the BHA make even more improvements
Vitamin C - I am using this occasionally right now, but see greater results from the CPs, so I will not reorder this one. It does some nice things, just not the WOW factor CPs give me. |

it would have to be the sample of the Thalgo O2 Oxygen Mask that I tried a few times. That was really something. After my skin felt really clear and upcoming breakouts definatly minimized. Skin felt softer and more radiant/brighter! |

Hi. I guess it was after a month I noticed soft, glowy (not oily) skin, nasolabials softened, just healthier looking skin. I also use it under my eyes. Unlike most C's (I've tried every single one) it's used 2X a day and perfectly compatible with retinols, AHAs etc. The difference is that it's not only a C serum, it also contains DAE which, according to the rep, includes DMAE. I've been using it along with the new peptide extreme and I'm really impressed. I should do a review soon. |

Jurlique eye gel. I use it in the mornings when I have puffy eyes, the type that you can feel not just see, and within 20 minutes they're gone. The only problem I had with one bottle was that so much came out with one pump that I was wandering around looking for other people with puffy eyes to give the rest to! |

Neostrata does a microdermabrasion home kit with vit C crystals, an activator, an aha cream and cleansing milk.
I think the kit retails for about $60. If I use this once a week, it makes me say WOW! |

Retacnyl (tretinoin - same active chemical as retin A: helps control my syringomas and sebaceous hyperplasia
Finacea: controls oil and blackheads
NIA24: evens out skin tone and helps to build skin barrier function (this is a good combination with Retacnyl for me) |

Aubrey GPB hair conditioner..but used as a exfoliator..rather than a hair conditioner!!!
About 15 years ago I mistakenly rubbed this product into my skin instead of my moisturizer..and as I was rubbing it in..I noticed a lot of surface skin rubbing off with the oils from the conditioner..so I've used it as an exfoliatorever since..and have never found anything else as effective and non-irritating for both my face and body skin. |
